How Silicon Photonics Works Silicon photonics uses the properties of light to transmit information through: 🔹 Waveguides: Channels that guide light signals across a chip. 🔹 Modulators: Devices that encode data onto the light waves. 🔹Components that convert light signals back into electrical signals. 🔹 Lasers: External light sources integrated with silicon chips to generate the optical signal. Silicon photonics is poised to play a critical role in next-generation communications and computing systems, bridging the gap between electronics and photonics for unparalleled innovation.

🌐 How Silicon Ingots Are Made: The Foundation of Modern Semiconductors Silicon ingots are essential for creating the wafers used in semiconductor manufacturing. Their production involves precise and controlled processes to achieve the high purity and structural perfection required. 🔹 Step 1: Purifying Silicon Raw silicon, extracted from quartz or sand, undergoes purification to achieve semiconductor-grade purity (99.9999%) through the Siemens process. 🔹 Step 2: The Czochralski Process Using the CZ method, purified silicon is melted, and a small seed crystal is dipped into the molten silicon. As the crystal is slowly pulled out and rotated, it forms a cylindrical single-crystal silicon ingot. #BigShineKorea #BigShineWorldwide #Semiconductors #SiliconIngots #Innovation #TechnologyLeadership

#DidYouKnow SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) in Semiconductor Technology Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) is a cutting-edge semiconductor technology that uses a layered silicon-insulator-silicon structure instead of the traditional silicon substrate. The insulator, often a layer of silicon dioxide (SiO₂), is sandwiched between a thin layer of silicon and a silicon base. This design improves the performance and efficiency of semiconductor devices.
